Tennessee loses yet another athlete to transfer

This one could hurt.

Tennessee has been taking body blows to the roster the entire year. Jalen Hurd decided to transfer and so did former five-star receiver Preston Williams. It seems another hit is coming as former all-purpose back Vincent Perry will not only transfer, but focus on baseball at his next destination.

GoVols247 is reporting that the class of 2015 commit will not be back at Tennessee after the holiday break. He was ruled academically ineligible for the baseball season in spring, but posted better grades in the fall semester. GoVols suggested that Perry was also dealing with an injury most of the year, which is why he didn't see the field.
